Applications typically require an application fee & deposit, proof of

How long does the approval process take?
The key to a seamless application process is to have all your documents ready
to upload. After all documentation has been received, it typically takes
3 business days, depending on verification requirements. If you are
missing needed documents or there are other verifications needed, the process
can take longer.
What type of lease will I sign?
The Marlowe uses the Texas Apartment Association (TAA) Lease because it
provides residents with a standardized, professionally developed lease designed
specifically for Texas rental housing. It clearly outlines the rights and
responsibilities of both the resident and the community, helping provide
consistency, transparency, and clarity throughout the lease term.
Is renter’s insurance required?
Yes, we require all residents who will be signing the lease to carry $100,000
in renter’s liability insurance. Before your lease begins, you’ll need to show
us proof of coverage, and you’ll need to keep the policy active during your
entire stay with us. If you don’t already have a provider, Homebody is a
quick and easy option that meets all our requirements and they approve all our
residents so you don’t need to worry about finding a provider. You can
sign up in about five minutes at their website or by calling 1.877.577.9850.
We also strongly recommend getting coverage for your personal belongings, as
liability-only policies don’t cover those. Let us know if you have any
questions - we’re happy to help!
Is there an online portal for residents?
Yes, our online resident portal is where you can pay rent, submit & track
maintenance requests, sign or renew your lease, view your lease & ledger
details, reserve community spaces, manage renter’s insurance, rent a storage
unit or bike space, and communicate with the team.

You can easily pay rent through the online resident portal or in the office
using a variety of payment methods, such as debit (ACH), credit card, echeck,
MoneyGram, cashier’s or personal checks.

Lease renewal options are typically sent to you before the end of your lease
and can be signed online through the resident portal.

Our lease requires a 60-day written
notice of intent to vacate, and your move-out notice must not terminate the
Lease before the end of the Lease term or renewal period.
Do you offer individual leases &
co-living?
We do not offer individual leases
(by-the-bed) with co-living arrangements (individual leases with private rooms
and shared commons spaces). We offer a single lease with everyone 18 years and
older on the same lease.

floor main elevator lobby) which provides individual cubby insulation.
What environmentally friendly features do you have?
EV Charging stations, Energy efficient air conditioning and heating controlled
by the smart Nest thermostat, LED lighting, ceiling fans in all bedrooms, and
the Teal Boiler system which is more energy-efficient than traditional
individual hot-water heaters because it heats water centrally and on demand,
rather than continuously maintaining hot water in multiple storage tanks. This
reduces standby energy loss, improves efficiency, and can provide a more
consistent supply of hot water. Our
community is a proud participant of the Austin Energy Green Building (AEGB)
program.
Can guests use the amenities?
We welcome your guests to enjoy our spectacular spaces. To maintain a
peaceful & premium experience for all residents, guests must be accompanied
by a resident and there is a limit of two guests per apartment.
Can I reserve any amenity space for a private event?
Yes, the boardroom can be reserved for a private meeting or event. See
the office reservation details.
Are there resident events or community activities?
We love bringing neighbors
together through social events and seasonal celebrations. Getting to know
your neighbors is a great way to experience our community, not just for the
things you can do, but for the people you can meet. We offer engaging
resident experiences that are thoughtfully designed to bring neighbors together
so everyone can feel welcome and at home.
Is there an on-site management office?
